EuroBionet, the 'European Network for the Assessment of Air Quality by the Use of Bioindicator Plants', is an EU-funded cooperative project currently consisting of public authorities and scientific institutes from 12 cities in 8 countries. In 2000, the bioindicator plants tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum
Post-transcriptional gene silencing (PTGS), or RNA silencing, is one of the key mechanisms of antiviral defence used by plants. To counter this defence response, viruses produce suppressor proteins that are able to inhibit the PTGS pathway or to interfere with some of its function. The aim of this
Pepino mosaic virus (PepMV, genus Potexvirus) was first described on pepino (Solanum muricatum) in Peru during 1980. Since 1999, the virus was reported in several European countries and in North and South America as an agent of viral disease of tomato crops. In Poland in 2002, the PepMV-SW isolate
Zucchini yellow mosaic virus (ZYMV) is a member of the Potyvirus genus in the Potyviridae family, the largest group of plant viruses. Different isolates of this virus have been found in infected cucurbits throughout the world, including localities in Europe, America, Australia, and Asia. In August
Transgenic plants of tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L) and European plum (Prunus domestica L) were produced by transforming with the apple class 1 KNOX genes (MdKN1 and MdKN2) or corn KNOX1 gene. Transgenic tobacco plants were regenerated in vitro from transformed leaf discs cultured in a medium lacking
High throughput sequencing technologies were used to identify plant viruses in cereal samples surveyed from 2012 to 2017. Fifteen genome sequences of a tenuivirus infecting wheat, oats and spelt in Estonia, Norway and Sweden were identified and characterized. Like most tenuiviruses, the genome of
Complete genome sequences were obtained from nine isolates of canna yellow streak virus (CaYSV). CaYSV belongs to the sugarcane mosaic virus (SCMV) subgroup of potyviruses with johnsongrass mosaic virus (JGMV) as its closest relative. Multiple sequence alignments showed a pattern of amino acid
Although plant biotechnology has been widely investigated for the production of clinical-grade monoclonal antibodies, no antibody products derived from transgenic plants have yet been approved by pharmaceutical regulators for clinical testing. In the Pharma-Planta project, the HIV-neutralizing human
Potato mop-top virus (PMTV) was detected in potatoes grown in the United States and Canada during surveillance testing by a reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) targeting the coat protein gene in RNA3. Out of 3,221 lots of seed and ware potatoes that were tested, 4.3% were
Variation in the chloroplast genome of Calluna vulgaris (heather), the dominant species of northwest European heath communities, was analysed using polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphisms (PCR-RFLPs) and microsatellites. No length polymorphisms were detected in the
Six hundred and one symptomatic potato samples were collected from nine provinces in Iran. Screening by double-antibody sandwich enzyme linked immunosorbent assay using a potato virus X (PVX) together with a few potyviruses polyclonal antibodies, produced positive reactions in 4.3 % of samples
The complete nucleotide sequence of the genome of a new potato virus X (PVX) strain Tula isolated by us has been determined. Based on comparison of the PVX Tula nucleotide sequence with the sequences of 12 other PVX strains, this strain was assigned to the European cluster of PVX strains.
To elucidate the genomic determinants of Potato virus X (PVX) strains, which cause diverse responses in host plants, we determined the complete genomic RNA sequences of four Japanese PVX strains: PVX-BS, -BH, -OG, and -TO. These four strains, plus the previously sequenced PVX-OS strain, differ in
In July 2011, greenhouse-grown chrysanthemum hybrid plants (Chrysanthemum × morifolium) with symptoms resembling those associated with tospoviruses were observed in the Kupusina locality (West Bačka District, Serbia). Disease incidence was estimated at 40%. Symptomatic plants with chlorotic ring
OBJECTIVE
To review the Australian tobacco industry's knowledge of pesticide residue on Australian tobacco and its policies and practices on resisting calls by tobacco control advocates that consumers should be informed about pesticide residue as well as additives.
METHODS
Review of previously
